  2. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    The repeating sequence of digits is called "repetend" which has a certain length greater than 0, also called "period". [5] In base 10, a fraction has a repeating decimal if and only if in lowest terms, its denominator has any prime factors besides 2 or 5, or in other words, cannot be expressed as 2 m 5 n, where m and n are non-negative integers.

  3. Binomial distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_distribution

    (These probabilities should sum to a value close to one, in order to encompass the entire sample space.) Then by using a pseudorandom number generator to generate samples uniformly between 0 and 1, one can transform the calculated samples into discrete numbers by using the probabilities calculated in the first step.

  4. Atomic ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_ratio

    In laser physics however, the atomic ratio may refer to the doping ratio or the doping fraction. For example, theoretically, a 100% doping ratio of Yb : Y 3 Al 5 O 12 is pure Yb 3 Al 5 O 12 . The doping fraction equals,

  5. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ / ⓘ; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.It appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics, and some of these formulae are commonly used for defining π, to avoid relying on the definition of the length of a curve.

  6. Time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time

    Time is the continuous progression of existence that occurs in an apparently irreversible succession from the past, through the present, and into the future. [1] [2] [3] It is a component quantity of various measurements used to sequence events, to compare the duration of events (or the intervals between them), and to quantify rates of change of quantities in material reality or in the ...

  7. Fiber volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_volume_ratio

    Porosity or void fraction is a measure of the void (i.e., "empty") spaces in a material, and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume, between 0 and 1, or as a percentage between 0 and 100%.

  8. Replication crisis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis

    Despite the fact that the likelihood ratio in favor of the alternative hypothesis over the null is close to 100, if the hypothesis was implausible, with a prior probability of a real effect being 0.1, even the observation of p = 0.001 would have a false positive risk of 8 percent. It would still fail to reach the 5 percent level.

  9. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    Hexadecimal (also known as base-16 or simply hex) is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.
